So, I got a job. It seems like a nice company but so far I’ve only done training so far, and since they’ve just gone through a huge recruitment drive, these training sessions involve about 20 people. In one room. Together. So today as a kind of blue-sky thinking ice-breaker/name-learning ceremony, we were given a somewhat puzzling task: write your name on a piece of paper, then take your first initial and write down as many words as you can starting with that letter, that might also describe you.

CAROLINE:

  • Calm (sometimes)
  • Confident (sometimes)
  • Clever
  • Cheeky
  • Chipper
  • Clean
  • Creepy…
  • Critical

With the benefit of hindsight, it’d be a much better task if I’d written Calamitous, Compromising, Charlatan. I might have made myself laugh. These words might be more apt next week when the 6.30am wake ups start.

On the other hand, I was thinking about putting some photos here and found some pretty cool pictures from a visit to Wells Cathedral many moons ago. It’s a very pretty place and I probably haven’t done it justice, but I like them so they’re here anyway.

A not-quite silhouette of my housemate Annie, against the setting sun.

A very old street. My favourite self-captured perspective photograph.
